We arrive at 1:30 and are looking for idea's on what to do with our daughter. We have the 3 day hopper that starts the next day.
We have dinner scheduled at Goofy's Kitchen. I already have an appointment at BBB in the park. We've also seen Alvin and the Chipmunks. Not sure if the other two PG movies are suitable for her.
I feel bad that she might be dissapointed that we're nit going right to the park. We are staying at Fairfield.
Thanks for any suggestions.
I think dinner at Goofy's Kitchen ought to take care of any "out of park" disappointment.
My suggestion? Go to Downtown Disney:
If you want to, go to lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. That's always fun, and since you won't have to rush off to the parks, you can take your time.
If it's too late for lunch, just go to the Rainforest Cafe and get everyone a Volcano! to share! Complete with announcement and mini-parade.
Make a rule--that first day is the one and only day to shop for souvenirs, and spend loads of time picking out just that perfect thing on which to spend the souvenir money at World of Disney. If you plan to buy "mouse ears" or a costume, or anything like that, buy it here and now--preferably with your Disney Visa, saving 10%, and giving you more time to spend in the park.
Build a bear at Build-a-Bear
Ask your daughter if she'd prefer Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique or a Studio Star Makeover at Disney 365--that might be a good way to fill up that time, and not take park time away for Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. If however, BBB is a must, scrap this idea.
Pick out a special Disney book at Compass Books. Go back to the room and read it together.
Go swim in the hotel pool
Go on a Hidden Mickey hunt through Downtown Disney
Get a
Lego or Duplo set (not sure of your daughter's age) from the Lego store and take it back to the room. Have everyone in the family try to build a Lego or Duplo city all around the room.
Buy a Disney family game from World of Disney, and have a major game tournament back at the room.
There's no shortage of things to do.
